Daniel Smith Extra Fine Watercolor 15ml Sleeping Beauty Turquoise Genuine

A unique and vibrant blue, the gemstone comes from Sleeping Beauty Mountain in Arizona where DANIEL SMITH found a deposit that lives up to their high expectations. It is lightfast and permanent, with none of the transient color fade that plagues most turquiose. Turquoise has a unique porous nature that produces granular washes. Juicy washes flow from the brush and drybrush work has the intense texture found only in a mineral pigment. Traditional mineral pigments often have a muted feel and our unique Turquoise Genuine has a true brilliance. DANIEL SMITH use the highest grade mineral that is found closest to the earth's surface, where environmental factors have enhanced the structure to gemstone quality and deepened the tonal richness to a remarkable blue.

DANIEL SMITH created the PrimaTek line of paints made from minerals, some semi-precious, beginning in 1998 with a cache of Lapis Lazuli. They have a mineralogist who sources minerals which we process into pigment, then mill it into watercolor. PrimaTeks express themselves with gorgeous granulation, giving a sense of movement and depth that some artists have described as magical.

Formulated to meet and exceed the highest industry standards, every batch is thoroughly analyzed for its performance qualities--lightfastness, color value, tinting strength, clarity, vibrancy, undertone, particle size, density and viscosity. Paint everything you can imagine with vibrant and consistent colors that can be easily mixed for even more variations.
